Ryan Meyer at the Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture

Ryan Meyer (second-year MFA candidate) will be in an exhibition at the Fort Mason Center for Arts & Culture entitled “This Message Has No Content.” This show will run from February 3 to March 10. An opening reception will be held February 2 from 6-9 pm.

The term “This Message Has No Content” originates from an error message in an email preview when the Mail App on iPhone and iPad devices does not fully download a message or when the message only contains an image with no text. Digitally mediated communication has come to dictate the interpersonal space of our present. It is also often how we present ourselves to others. From the narcissism of the selfie to the intimacy fabricated through Skype, Facebook, and Craigslist, to the manipulated language used to define our sense of reality of the world and ourselves, this exhibition seeks to explore the insatiable consumption, marketing-centric representation, and vapidly fragmented social interaction of contemporary culture.

In addition to Ryan, Lizzy Blasingame (SFSU), T2R/Laura Gillmore (CCA), Connie Woo (SFAI), Dave Beeman (CCA), Kira Doningues (CCA), Izidora Leber (SFAI), Tamara Porras (CCA) and Chuhe Yan (SFAI) are also particpating.

“This Message Has No Content” is curated by Aaron Wilder of SFAI.
